    Difference Between Male & Female Bald Eaglesthumbnail A pair of bald eagles

    Differentiating between male and female bald eagles can be a difficult undertaking because neither has any immediately obvious telltale gender markings. There are, however, multiple telling, albeit subtle, differences.

    1.
    Size
    *

    Female bald eagles are larger than their male counterparts by roughly a third in size. Females tend to have a body length of 35 to 37 inches, while males tend to be 30 to 34 inches long.
    Talon Length
    *

    Both male and female eagles have four talons--three in front and one in back. The back-facing talon or hallux tends to be longer on female bald eagles.
    Beak Depth
    *

    The width from the top of the beak to the eagle's chin is the depth of the beak. Female bald eagles generally have deeper beaks than male eagles.
    Voice
    *

    The female bald eagle will often have a lower voice than her mate. Gender may be determined by comparing the pitch of two eagles.

    Hey how many bald females do you see out there on the streets?, Just look for the bald one, or the one with thinning feathers, also the more quiet one is usually the male. lol

    I would fit into 1967's discription. I must be a male bald eagle

    I will ask mrs eagle what she thinks
    the female always leads the male, trust me i know
    I believe the female will lay the eggs.......lol
    Would depend on what you wanted to tell them. Being able to talk Bald Eagle would definitely be a help.

    We all enjoy a good laugh. Too serious on here at time.
    Just lift up their little tailfeathers and take a peek (:
    The male bald eagle has a little tiny pee pee with little biddy balls under his feathers between his legs. If you don't believe me, have a look for yourself.
